“Then why do you praise it to the sky?” ask Reynard again.
Liona rolled her eyeballs and said “I've made peace with the past so I can tell my story objectively.”
Reynard was stunned for a moment and then calmed down. He poured another glass of wine for Liona then asked in a soft voice. “If he is such an amazing man, why did you break up with him?”
Liona propped up her chin and said, “Yeah, it has something to do with what happened in the past. Wait a minute, let me just remember. Hmmm..at first we slaing love each other. When we started dating, I was a freshman and she was a final-level student. The following year he was about to graduate, when Seth was busy with his internship but he always took the time to meet me on campus. We are a regular couple who love to watch movies and go to dinner together.”
“After we finished our date, she will escort me back to the campus dormitory. At that time I felt like the happiest and luckiest girl in the world. I was very young and naive at the time. To be honest, I was so infatuated with Seth that I prayed that I would quickly grow up because I wanted to marry that man.” said Liona/
‘She wants to get married!’ reynard's mood immediately deteriorated due to that sentence.
“We spent an entire year in a love romance. Then Vena got the news that I was in love and after that she always joined if we went on a date. From then on my personal date with Seth became a meeting between three people with the joining of Vena. Vena always treated me very badly in the past. Suddenly she was acting sweet like honey, I was still very naive back then. To be honest back then I thought he had changed for the better.”
Reynard could imagine what had happened next even before Liona finished her story.
“After Vein join us. By the way my ex-boyfriend is Seth Arsenio Wilfred. Uh...What a coincidence? Just like you his surname is also Wilfred.”
“Yes, this is really a coincidence! After all he is my nephew!” Depressed Reynard sipped wine with a sigh.
“Come toast!” Liona clinks the glass with Reynard and drinks two more sips.
“His drinking-slows...”.
“Don't be stingy! This bottle of wine won't make you poor Rey!”
Reynard was stunned to see Liona's behavior when she was already drunk.
“Hem...tadi where's my story? Oh yes I remember now.”
He took another sip of his wine then resumed his story excitedly.
“I told you about the change in Vena's attitude towards me. I was so blind and stupid I didn't realize he liked Seth. Since then, Vena has always accompanied us to the cinema. Seth sat in our midst. I was not suspicious of them at the time. Well, geez. At first Seth objected to Vena joining us, but I foolishly argued with Seth instead. I madly and foolishly defended Vena!”
“ Gradually, our contacts are getting fewer and we also rarely go out together. We used to call each other every night without stopping. But then our phone calls got reduced to a few times a week. Then our relationship worsened until at one point we only talked to each other once a week on the phone.”
“Then what happened?” ask Reynard. She's getting deeper into Liona's past. The man is getting to know all the secrets of the past of the woman he loves. Moreover, he could hear directly about Seth's relationship in the past. Reynard knew that his niece had been in a relationship but he never knew that Liona was the woman.
“I managed to find a part-time job to earn extra money. Working and studying kept me busy so I didn't pay much attention to the changes that were taking place in my relationship with Seth. And the most important thing is that I believe in Seth a hundred percent!”
“Then what happened between you?” ask Reynard again.
Holding the glass, Liona blushed and recalled, “Then they did something cruel to me and it hurt me a lot. I found out that Seth had an affair with Vena. They have sex and openly admit that they have been in a relationship with each other secretly for a whole year. My heart is instantly broken!”
‘Something cruel?’ Reynard repeated the sentence in his heart with a frown. Then he asked Liona. “What have they done to you?”
Liona's body trembled like a leaf blown by the wind as she thought of what had happened on that fateful night. He could even remember the events of that night very clearly. They killed him and threw his body into the abyss but he was still lucky that he was still alive. In his attempt to save himself, he found a tiny baby crying in the middle of the forest.
When she was abroad, Liona would remember all those events and she would hug Elvano's body. That thought tormented him so much that he wanted to rush back and kill those bastards!
“I hate them all! Really hate them! I want them all dead!”
Seeing Liona's unstable state, Reynard held the woman's hand tightly to give her strength.
They had known each other for quite a long time and Liona had always closed herself off. And this is the first time Reynard has seen it disintegrate like this. ‘Those jerks! What did they do to Liona?’ thought.
Reynard's eyes turned grim and terrifying. She held onto Liona's hand tightly and said, “Let me help you!”
“No want! I will kill them all with my own hands!” Liona sipped another glass of wine.
“Eh why does the room suddenly spin?” Liona rubbed her temples and looked at Reynard with a puzzled look on her face. “Why did I see you there were two? Wait... Now you have three!”
Hearing the woman's words, Reynard lowered his head and looked at the wine decanter. The man realized that Liona had consumed more than half the contents of the wine decanter.
He continued to drink wine as he recounted the bad events in his past. The wine had a strong influence on Liona. Not only did it dull the woman's senses but it also made her more daring. Reynard scowled and reached out to take the glass in Liona's hand. “That's enough! You better stop drinking!”
“No want!” Liona held the glass while looking at Reynard with a sharp gaze as if she was protecting a small child, “Go you!”
